CVE-2026-43175 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2026-43175: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: rs9: Reserve 8 struct clk_hw slots for for 9FGV0841 The 9FGV0841 has 8 outputs and registers 8 struct clk_hw, make sure there are 8 slots for those newly registered clk_hw pointers, else there is going to be out of bounds write when pointers 4..7 are set into struct rs9_driver_data .clk_dif[4..7] field. Since there are other structure members past this struct clk_hw pointer array, writing to .clk_dif[4..7] fields corrupts both the struct rs9_driver_data content and data around it, sometimes without crashing the kernel. However, the kernel does surely crash when the driver is unbound or during suspend. Fix this, increase the struct clk_hw pointer array size to the maximum output count of 9FGV0841, which is the biggest chip that is supported by this driver.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2026-43175

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2026-43175 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2026-43175

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2026-43175.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2026-43175, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis
